Paint Correction
Correct the paint. Reveal the finish.
Paint correction is the process of refining your car’s clear coat rather than covering it up. Working under inspection lighting, we reduce swirl marks, oxidation, light scratching and the general dullness that builds up over years of washing, so the paint reflects cleanly again.
Starting prices are on our packages page, and we have written up what actually drives the cost: How much does paint correction cost on the Gold Coast?
How it works
Five stages, in order.
- 01
Inspect
Paint is assessed under inspection lighting to see the actual defects, not just the dirt.
- 02
Prepare
The vehicle is washed and decontaminated so nothing is dragged across the paint during polishing.
- 03
Correct
Machine polishing reduces swirl marks, oxidation and light defects in the clear coat.
- 04
Refine
A finer polishing stage removes haze and brings up depth and clarity.
- 05
Protect
The corrected finish is protected so the work lasts. Options are discussed with you first.

Questions
Paint Correction, answered.
How much does paint correction cost on the Gold Coast?
Our Full Detail package starts from $350 and includes a machine polish that removes swirl marks and light to medium scratches. Paint needing more than that is quoted on the vehicle, because the work genuinely varies with size and condition.
What is the difference between a machine polish and paint correction?
A machine polish is a single stage that lifts gloss and removes lighter defects. Paint correction cuts harder first and then refines that finish back to clarity. We will tell you which one your car actually needs rather than selling you the bigger number.
Can paint correction remove every scratch?
No. Correction works within the clear coat you already have. Deep scratches through the clear coat, and paint that is thin or failing, have a limit to what can safely be taken off. We assess it under inspection lighting and tell you up front.
Do I need to bring the car to Nerang?
Yes for paint correction. It needs controlled lighting to see the actual defects and a clean enclosed space so nothing lands on the panel mid-polish. Interior and exterior detailing we can do mobile.
